During a recent investigation, researchers posed cardiac arrest scenarios to voice assistants. The results were highly unfavorable.Although voice assistants such as Siri or Alexa are frequently relied upon for tasks like weather updates or setting timers during cooking, using them in critical situations may not be advisable. While it's hoped that individuals never encounter a medical emergency, it's cautioned that relying on Siri or Alexa for assistance in such scenarios should be avoided.As reported by Fox News, a recent…

The spatial distribution of summer precipitation anomalies (units: mm day-1) in 2050-2099 over Tibetan Plateau under the SSP5-8.5 scenario. The dots denote regions where at least 80% of the models agree on the sign of change. The black line indicates the boundaries of the TP, where the elevations are above 2,500 m. The baseline climatology refers to the period from 1965-2014, and the mid- and long-term is from 2050-2099. Credit: IAP…

Built-in function vs. numerical methodsPCA is an important tool for dimensionality reduction in data science and to compute grasp poses for robotic manipulation from point cloud data. PCA can also directly used within a larger machine learning framework as it is differentiable. Using the two principal components of a point cloud for robotic grasping as an example, we will derive a numerical implementation of the PCA, which will help to understand what PCA is and what it does.Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is widely…

This blog post explains the Ghost Attention method of fine-tuning introduced in the LLaMa 2 paper.DALL-E generated image of a ghost llamaThe ProblemOften times, we want the LLM to be given an instruction once and then follow it until told otherwise. Nevertheless, as the below example shows LLMs can quickly forget instructions after a few turns of dialogue.Figure 9 from the LLaMa 2 paper illustrating how instructions can be ignored after a few turns of dialogueOne way to get the model to pay attention consistently is…

Frogs can be hard to detect, and they are not, of course, the only species that eludes more traditional, boots-on-the-ground detection. Thomsen began work on another organism that notoriously confounds measurement: fish. Counting fish is sometimes said to vaguely resemble counting trees — except they’re free-roaming, in dark places, and fish counters are doing their tally while blindfolded. Environmental DNA dropped the blindfold. One review of published literature on the technology — though it came with caveats,…

A constructive approach to measuring distribution differences.Photo by Jeswin Thomas on UnsplashToday, we will be discussing KL divergence, a very popular metric used in data science to measure the difference between two distributions. But before delving into the technicalities, let’s address a common barrier to understanding math and statistics.Often, the challenge lies in the approach. Many perceive these subjects as a collection of formulas presented as divine truths, leaving learners struggling to interpret their…

These gravel-capped fluvial ridges in northeastern Colorado were among the "fossil river" remnants studied by Nebraska geologists Jesse Korus and Matt Joeckel. The eroded remnants of ancient river channels provide important information about ancient hydrology, landscape changes and uplift of the Great Plains.

The LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna) mission, led by ESA (European Space Agency) with NASA contributions, will detect gravitational waves in space using three spacecraft, separated by more than a million miles, flying in a triangular formation. Lasers fired between the satellites, shown in this artist’s concept, will measure how gravitational waves alter their relative distances. Credit: AEI/MM/ExozetLISA, a collaborative mission between ESA and NASA, aims to detect gravitational waves from space, offering new…
